Love the optimism expressed here, Amber. Can wholeheartedly relate although, a month or so on from solstice, those grey clouds are still keeping the full throttle of that ministering sun at bay on this side of the Pond. Hopefully things are all blue sky and brilliant sunshine with you! :) xx

My Dear Amber,
Just as "Seasonal Triumph" shares a changing world with us, so too does it remind me of the triumph and the dawning of each new day. This simple little poem gave me a nice moment of enjoyment. Thank you, Amber.

And let me take this opportunity to thank you with all my heart for your loving interest and support of my writings over many years here on AD. You are a unique individual, Amber, and I have benefited more times than I can mention from your insightful reviews and comments on my postings. You are a treasure in my life.

The further one lives north, the more important summer solstice is. Growing up in northern Wisconsin, it was always great to have long summer days to enjoy before the long period of winter with its very short days came all too soon.
